In areas, like here in SoCal, we NEVER have brownouts or electric cuts at night. So, when you are putting the maximum from your solar back TO the grid, you are also probably using the most. Peak Summer Demand ALWAYS goes right along with the hottest days and greatest AirCon usage.
The only advantage is potentially making it so that the power company doesn't have to build as much extra capacity.
Cost of the Tesla battery will come down when a couple things happen. COMPETITION from others. Also, when production glitches are worked out and economies of scale kick in.
Too much is never enough
